Pollutant filter
The po llutant filter (particle filter) ensures that
contaminants in the outside air (such as dust or
pollen) are great ly reduced or stopped. The air is
also filtered in recirculation mode.
The po llutant filter e lement must be changed ac-
cording to the intervals spec ified in the mainte-
nance schedu le so that the a ir cond ition ing sys-
tem's performance is not adversely affected.
If the filter's effect iveness is weakened by driving
the vehicle in areas with heavily polluted outside
air, the filter eleme nt should a lso be changed be-
tween the listed serv ices .
